FAQ
Can I put a metal garage beside my house?
You may be able to, but don't assume every open spot on the property is buildable. Ware County Planning & Codes Department has requirements that can affect garage placement, including a current setback of Not found with specific numbers. The county's zoning ordinance exists as a PDF but its accessory-structure setback table could not be extracted as text in this pass. Needs a manual review of the primary PDF or direct confirmation with Planning & Codes.. Check the rules for your address before choosing the location, particularly if you're working with limited room between the house and property line.
How much extra room should I allow around my vehicles?
Don't measure a car and make the garage barely wider than the vehicle. You need enough room to open the doors, get in and out, walk around it and reach anything stored nearby. With two vehicles, remember the space between them too. Adding a little breathing room during planning can make a big difference once you use the garage every day.
How long does it take to get a metal garage delivered to Three Points?
Current delivery time to Three Points is approximately 1 to 2 weeks. If your project also involves permitting, grading or concrete, don't wait to do those jobs until the garage is almost ready. Use the delivery window to get the property prepared, and base your schedule on the estimate given for your order.
Should I pour the concrete before ordering the garage?
Get the garage specifications nailed down first. You want to know the correct dimensions and make sure the planned location meets the rules for Three Points before putting permanent concrete in the ground. It's much easier to adjust a garage plan on paper than to deal with a slab that was poured in the wrong place or at the wrong size.
How close can my metal garage be to the property line?
The current setback in Three Points is Not found with specific numbers. The county's zoning ordinance exists as a PDF but its accessory-structure setback table could not be extracted as text in this pass. Needs a manual review of the primary PDF or direct confirmation with Planning & Codes., although you should confirm the requirement for your particular property with Ware County Planning & Codes Department. A setback controls how close the building can be to certain property boundaries. Check that distance before you settle on a location, especially when space on the lot is tight.
How far is Benton Metal Depot from Three Points?
Benton Metal Depot's Statesboro location is approximately 98.9 miles from Three Points. The company serves residents throughout Ware, including communities such as Bolen, Waresboro, Dixie Union and Skullhead. Current delivery time for a metal garage to the Three Points area is about 1 to 2 weeks.
Can my metal garage have windows and different doors?
The available configuration depends on the garage package, but doors and windows should be considered while you're planning the layout. Think about where vehicles will enter, where you want a regular walk door and whether natural light is needed inside. Making those decisions early helps you choose a layout that works instead of adding features wherever they'll fit.
What can I keep in a metal garage?
Cars and trucks are obvious, but metal garages can also hold lawn equipment, tools, recreational gear and general storage. Larger buildings can leave room for work areas, too. Make a list of what you intend to keep inside before choosing the building size. It's easy to underestimate how quickly floor space disappears.
